Before this can even be considered for consderation in this thread you need to change a few things.
Flip it (the bike should be facing with the drivetrain facing outward)
Backgroud, the white freezer looking appliance doesn't cut it - take it outside against a white garage door, or some other outdoor setting.
Remove the saddlebag.
Others might comment on the stem having 5+cm of spacers, it being flipped up, the hoods up so high.
But the important thing is it's comfortable and you enjoy riding it.

That Time by Leej88 is about the hottest of the hot.
I can't tell if it's the bike of the photography. But it's hot.

Take the bike outside, turn it so the drivetrain is facing outward, remove the saddlebag and you should have a good looking shot.

I think Grambo wins with that IF bike.

It was one of the beefs I had w/the bike shop. They did a crappy build and gave it to me w/even more spacers! And all the same size. I took it back and had them fix it, they took some off and put one on the top. I got tired of going back to them so it will do for now.

Awesome merlin and whatever that first TI bike is. Not to take anything away from the Litespeed, but the other two just look so much cleaner. I think maybe if you went with Yellow instead of red on the tape/saddle it would have changed my opinion, but either way, all three of them are great bikes and be rideble long after we're all gone. Nice rides guys, good to see this thread got brought back!
